Corylopsis pauciflora

 

The beautiful intricate branching of this deciduous shrub fills with primrose-yellow, bell-shaped flowers in drooping clusters in early spring. They glow heart-warmingly in the weak light. The attractive red-edged foliage emerges after flowering. Underplant with Pulmonaria, cyclamen, Ophiopogon, hellebores and Omphalodes.
